New treatment option for Neuroblastoma (NB)
Official title Phase II Study of Chidamide-Dinutuximab Beta-Irinotecan-Temozolomide for Refractory/Relapsed Neuroblastoma in Children
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07318831
What this study is testing
What is Chidamide Combined with Dinutuximab Beta, Irinotecan, and Temozolomide?
Chidamide Combined with Dinutuximab Beta, Irinotecan, and Temozolomide is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for neuroblastoma (nb).
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a Phase II clinical trial investigating the effectiveness and safety of a four-drug combination-Chidamide, Dinutuximab Beta, Irinotecan, and Temozolomide-for children with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma. The primary goal is to evaluate how well this regimen works to control the cancer, while the secondary goal is to closely monitor its safety and side effects in these young patients.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
